It would be nice if both the FireWire and USB subsystems started up sooner. There are other issues (with USB for instance), where ukbd not being initialized before the mount root prompt can leave the system undebuggable. In the short term: can the SYSINIT priority be changed in the drivers to support this? It would be nice if there was a pluggable infrastructure for bootloader enabling of devices as debugger consoles that would make this possible.
